4 0

Answer:

a = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

-(5a+6)=2(3a+8)

-5a -6 = 2*3a +2*8

-5a -6 = 6a +16

-5a -6a = 16+6

-11a = 22

a= -22/11

a = -2

What is the slope passing through the points (11,-5) and (1,20)
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

-2.5 or -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope we need to find the change in y and divide it by the change in x:

m = change in y ÷ change in x

m = (-5 - 20) ÷ (11 - 1)

m = 25 ÷ -10

m = -2.5 or -5/2

Hope this helps!

Supposed five plain hamburgers cost the same as three super burgers. Also suppose that one super burger cost $.30 more than one
noname [10]

Answer:

1 plain = $0.75; 1 cheese = $0.95; 1 super = $1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We have three conditions

(1) 5P = 3S

(2)  S = C + 0.30

(3)  P = C – 0.20                           Substitute (3) into (1)

=====

(4)   5(C – 0.20) = 3S                   Substitute (2) into (4)

      5(C – 0.20) = 3(C + 0.30)     Remove parentheses

         5C – 1.00 = 3C + 0.90       Add 1.00 to each side

                    5C = 3C + 1.90        Subtract 3C from each side

                    2C = 1.90                 Divide each side by 2

                      C = $0.95              Substitute C into Equation (2)

=====

                      S = 0.95 + 0.30

                      S = $1.25               Substitute C into Equation (3)

=====

                     P = 0.95 – 0.20

                    P = $0.75

1 plain = $0.75; 1 cheese = $0.95; 1 super = $1.25

Leokris [45]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the equation of the line perpendicular to;

y = -3x + 2

From here, we can compare with the standard form of the equation of a straight line which is;

y = mx + c

From here m = -3

The slope is -3

Now, if two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1

Thus;

-3 * m = -1

m = 1/3

So we want to select an equation out of the options that has a slope of 1/3

Let us take a look at the last option

x -3y = 3

3y = x-3

divide through by 3

y = x/3-1

So here the coefficient of x is 1/3 which is the slope of the perpendicular line that we are looking for and is our slope
